After 12hrs shift I'm gonna get myself a drink and watch this - Thank You.

Rod, your knowledge and self awareness of even birds flying over is top notch when you’ve caught a beautiful fish! 😅 This sashimi you prepared looked yummy! 🫶🏼👌🏻

I like this mix of camping, fishing and spear fishing.

I thought you might load up on those sea urchin, I am sure you and your mate would have enjoyed those. Makes my mouth water.

Dude I couldve listened to 12 hours of that rain on boat tent footage to go to sleep .

Love these catch and cook, ty for the content Rod. 👍

As soon as the scene opened and I heard the slapping of the water against the hull, I remembered why I love fiberglass hull designs so much! They're quiet!

So many sea urchins!

I always enjoy the underwater segments the most. The scenery is spectacular! 🤩😁 I'm often like a driving instructor, with my foot hovering over the brake, telling you, "Be patient, be patient, the fish will present itself for the shot." 😂😂 I also love the sound of life on the reef. It's very ASMR. 😁 This vid ended rather abruptly, but I'll be back for the next one. See you then. 😊🤗💖👍👋

Holyy wow the amount of sea urchins down there when u we’re spear fishing

Always a great start to the weekend! We gotta drill holes in the water to fish right now so I envy you in your summer outings. About another month of that to go, then we start thawing out. In the meantime I'll always tune in every Friday and see what you're up to down under. Thanks and take care out there.

Good to see the harbour is looking reasonably healthy underwater.

Hunting. Fishing. Lovin everyday.

I thought you were frying something when the video started lol, took me a minute to realize it was rain.

i miss your sailing content! please make more. have a great day. :D

Ahh the best word in the dictionary. “Solo”… 👍👍👍

I thought The Heads looked crappy lumpy grey dangerous but yu showed us perceverance and won. It looked like yu were the only one on the harbour. Blokes down there were all home exfoliating maybe waiting for better weather, Thank yu for way good vid.

A fan of the boat set-up. Where's there's a will there's a way. Cheers!

WOW Amazing 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

mackies in NZ , and yakkas, yellow tail skad in aus. Is what I have heard them called. Spiky little buggers but great bait. And I have heard you can smoke the larger specimens.

I love fishing and diving combo videos! Looking forward to the next island camp out!! Thanks!

Rod you need a japanese sabikki rod! Daiwa definitely makes one but also a bunch of other manufacturers... (they pull the sabiki rig inside of the rod. so you don't have to deal with it tangling)

Boat camping and fishing at its best underwater scenery epic take care Rod

The bite behind the head looked like a squid kill bite. Might be why you dropped so many.

That wake up in the beginning looked gorgeous

Just know Rod, that we appreciate you sharing. You have made someone from America really consider trying to emigrate to the Gold Coast. Especially with the uncertain future here...

I carry one of them blow torch lighters that are the size of a bic lighter and there fantastic to have on the boat small pack away nice got to wack the fish skin with to render the fat and get them flavours weeping and bonus makes a fire easy if it's a little breeze (definitely don't leave without a trustworthy bic

Yet another quality video!!! What a legend!!!! from sunny South Africa 🇿🇦

I want to see more catch, cook and sushi 🤤

I would love to see you fish the nomad squidtrex sometime love your videos

Thanks!

Next time, Rod will have a self made mozzie net tent thingy, fix those suckers 😂

Another great video mate....Cheers....from Durban , South Africa

Thanks for ur content Rod. Really enjoy ur stuff bud.

Looks like you’ve mastered that Roller rod👏🏻👏🏻👍

Thanks for a great video, i feel like these vids from you are getting better and better :3

Happy Friday! Thanks for another cool video Rod!

Hey mate, could you add 100mm of fly screen mesh to hang over the edge of the boat and also sew in some at the end to the floor of the boat.

Happy Friday! Having a drink while watching this, dinner in the oven. Some cute little fish caught at the beginning. One wants to stay in the boat haha Another good video 😊

Loved this video! Great job Rod!

Another great vid rod !! That feed made me salivate. And what a breeding ground heeps of different species on the sabiki. Keep em coming mate look forward for the next film. Have fun with ya mate Mark down south.

It's nice to watch your videos. I wish you good hunting. Greetings from Antalya, 🇹🇷Türkiye...!

Caught plenty bonito in the GC, never thought of eating it as were usually targeting snapper, tuna, mackerel, kingys....next bonito no strip bait, sashimi it is

Here in the states, Bonito is very fishy and oily. A lot of fun to catch especially on the fly, but most don't eat it. Great shark bait too.

We call em yellow tail over in WA as well. I never thought to use them as bait tho, they were just a prickly unwanted by catch

Bro you should write rain it helps with algorithms hehe I love you

Hey, good to see on again. Best

Catch and NOT cook! We love your videos. I would love to try that sashimi.

Tailor n bonito both go mushy when frozen i found. Both are AMAZING as sashimi fresh

lovely dish mate. God bless

Wicked, Rod! Love the channel. ♥️

We definitely call them yakas in Sydney mate.

Bro, just aside note with sashimi or most dishes with wasabi and soy is you mix the wasabi and soy together for an over all flavor, example.. you put the wasabi in the Kikkoman dish and stir and blend, its a bit hard when the wasabi is not fresh but yeah, i learnt thats the Japanese way :)

Love your vids Rod. Was thinking you could us a fine mesh door at your boat tent's entrance. Stop rain and keep airflow. Stitched to the tent on one side and Velcro on the other. Roll up to store away 🤔

great vid .thanks!....peace out

Good❤

Worth getting one of those aussie army mosquito nets.

So I happened to pick up a Henckels cleaver just a few days before I saw your video where you got a custom one. I’m curious how you’re enjoying it? I really like mine, HOWEVER my 8” Henckle chef knife is far easier to use for certain things. I don’t think I’ll ever drop the knife, but for certain tasks, I love it. I think the blade is just a tad too thick for me. Though I love the sharp corners on the spine. I can scrape ginger, carrots, etc with it.

Awesome video as usual

Great work Rod, someone at Marks may of liked those Kina. Hope Gran is better

Mate on the Sydney Bonnie’s! Not sure when you were down but hit us up some time! Can show you some diving 💪🏼

Mosquitoes enjoys RoKKiT KiT while we enjoy the scenery

It's really nice to see your vids after a hard day at work sir.. im fan from Philippines heheh keep it up sir god bless you always...

i like .thank you

Ayyy finally got to a video right as it was posted 🎉

I commend anyone can sleep with bugs bitting them throughout the night. I’m packing it up and getting outa there 😂

Great show friend ❤️👍

Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦

As you were having the sushimi w soy & wasabi, I was having sushi w soy & wasabi made by our Korean friend. So I enjoyed an Asian meal with you, even though we are totally on the other side of the world- I am near Chicago Illinois, USA, near Lake Michigan. You twice mentioned the word “damn”. Consideration of damnation is actually a wise thing. “If you confess with your mouth ‘Jesus is Lord’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (from being damned forever in the Lake of Fire)- Romans 10:9.

Rubber hooks day! Can’t seem to stick them sometimes. Course I know little of Australia really but wild how that coastline differs from your usual territory, quite different, cheers man super interesting, come spring here (May) the Bonnie’s will show up some of our first ocean targets

Awesome video

Also you should use live bait hooks and hook the yaka through the nose not in their back. Kingfish eat them headfirst!

Babe, wake up, Rod posted another banger.

In WA Yakkas are yellowtail as well. Not as prolific as in the ES

G'day from hervey bay, always enjoy your videos Rod whether they be spear fishing, fishing from the boat or the kayak

First 😊 Rokkit new video, let’s go! 🎣💯🔥💪🏼

Breaks my heart to see so many ウニ　(sea urchin) passed by... : (

Nice video you little ripper !!!

for us in Indonesia...eating uncooked fish or raw fish...that's a bit strange... because for us all fish must be cooked before consumption😄🙏🙏

Interesting. Of you'd have asked me, I'd have said that that "Pike" was a Barracuda. Are they related?

❤❤❤❤

It's like I'm there with you

Loved this! What knife are you using to do the sashimi please Rod?

Nice!

You hook through the back when trolling? I’ve fished for 50yrs in lakes, and would never do that, but I guess it works in the ocean.

Nice catches Rod. how deep do you usually dive? how long can you hold your breath, the vids make it seem long.

Set the hook... set the hook... set the hook.........

WOOOOOO

Yep thats a yellow tail👍 You don't like floating a dead bait out the back?

Rod - I’ve always been curious where that olive drab shirt came from. Is it surplus?

Hell yea!

Set the hook rod.... Watch cavy😂

Just a question Rod, there seems to be a lot of water in and around your transom all the time, is this norm with the stabicrafts?

Why not collect some of those black sea urchin?

👍👍

Schmick boat

can we get island camping vids with inflatable boat like what you make couple years ago... Those videos was so amaziing and inspiring. Not complaining about boatcamp vids but they are not same way visually rich like island camping vids. Hopefully you understand what i am trying to say with my bad English

Up and do a session with guido?

So many Urchins on your dive, is that normal?

what model Stabi is that one cobber?
